Love

you are my morning
embrace in snow veiled garden,
dazzling as the sun


~0~0


you are my green grass
shelter of restless spirit, 
anchor in the storm


-0~0


you are my evening
home in the forest, cradling 
my sharp claws to rest

Happy hearts day everyone !!!

Smile

smile of a young boy 
holding the white balloon close,
brighter than the sun


~0~0


he flashes his smile
wider than birthday balloon,
blue candles flicker 


~0~0


the smile of a child
paints the room in yellow glow,
casting blues of snow

Snail ride

snail wants to win race

so he ties yellow, blue, green

balloons till he flies 

sailing above the white clouds


he flies with balloons 
he sees the red flag, so off 

he goes chasing it


sailing above the white clouds

until he recalls, 

his bet with the brown turtle,  

where does he land now?

To see

to see the world in
different colors and phases,
blessed gift to share  


~0~0


to see the bright side  
in others, forget yourself, 
like the sinking sun 


~0~0


desires and wants flee
like firecrackers on new year,
live a simple life


~0~0


desire to be one
with nature, peaceful thoughts come
amidst rock garden

Holiday memories

wrapping gifts, boxes
of love in red, gold ribbons,
poinsettia blooms 

~0~0

morning church bells ring,
laughter of children's playing, 
sounds of joy abound  


~0~0  


breakfast of rice cakes,
purple yams and coconut,  
sunlit holiday

Locks and keys

pink, blue, shiny locks 

like fanning peacock feathers,  

catching buyers' eye    

~0~0~

keys in my pocket

like seashells in my white vase,   

fitful goodnight sleep 

~0~0~

there are letters, notes
better kept locked in boxes,
truth can be bitter

Be true

leaves wither and fall  

wherever is your journey

be true to yourself

~0~0

this above all, love    

yourself despite your flaws, sins,   

you are beautiful

Thoughts on the sea

thoughts on white paper

 coasting along the blue sea,

    mudsrocks and shales break    

~0~0~

broken shell,   

sea

 unforgiving

Twins

true faces hiding 

with pretty masks, deceiving  
one and all, but us

~0~0

twain from the same vein   
we look up to the blue sky,    
off tangent we fly
  
~0~0


twin mirror staring
well of bare flesh and dark words,    
our clouds and bane
